The relationship of area under temperature curve during MR guided HIFU and diffusion coefficient in patient screening

چکیده
Background/introduction Different type of fibroid shows different response to MR guided HIFU, which is believed to reflect different blood suplly. ADC value derived from low b multiple b value DWI may reflect perfusion information. Our study is to assess the relationship of AUC (area under curve) calculated from the temperature curve during sonication in MR guided HIFU therapy for fibroid and the diffusion coefficient derived from multiple b-values DW-MRI in patient screening.

The relationship of T2WI signal intensity of uterine fibroids and the temperature curve in MR-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation
Background/introduction MR guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) ablation is increasingly being used worldwide to treat symptomatic uterine fibroids because of its excellent therapeutic efficacy in controlling symptoms and its excellent safety record. High signal intensity on T2WI MR images of fibroids is firstly considered a factor that induces poor ablation outcomes. Nevertheless, t...
متن کاملMagnetic Resonance-Guided High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (MR-HIFU) in Treatment of Symptomatic Uterine Myomas
Magnetic Resonance-guided High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (MR-HIFU) is a noninvasive technique for ablation therapy for uterine myomas, where focused ultrasound energy beam generates localized high temperature in the selected area and coagulates chosen tissue, leaving the skin and tissues in between unharmed. Magnetic resonance imaging enables accurate targeting for HIFU as well as temperatur...

PURPOSE Ultrasound (US)-guided high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) has been proposed for noninvasive treatment of neuropathic pain and has been investigated in in-vivo studies. However, ultrasound has important limitations regarding treatment guidance and temperature monitoring. Magnetic resonance (MR)-imaging guidance may overcome these limitations and MR-guided HIFU (MR-HIFU) has been us...

A particularly critical issue for brain therapy with transcranial high-power focused ultrasound (HIFU) is to optimize the accuracy and rapidity of the temperature follow-up during the heating. MRI is a well-suited candidate for temperature monitoring since it offers several parameters such as the proton resonance frequency shift. Up-to-now, temperature scans were achieved using the standard bod...
